Is this maga fucks or unrelated to the right wing nuts?
"A suspect is still on the loose after shooting to death a state judge at his home because the jurist hours earlier gave child custody to the man’s partner, a Maryland county sheriff said Friday. "
Nothing to do with MAGA, everything to do with child custody.
Oh good and sucks to now asshole will never see thier kid. I understand the mans feelings I been fucked over by judge who wouldn't follow the law but damn killing him doesn't help.
Not everything is national politics. This could be about one of the cases on the judge's docket or revenge for one of his decisions.
He's a circuit judge, meaning he generally handles more serious criminal cases and major civil cases. I wasn't able to find any news articles in the past year for the cases he was working on, so we'll need to wait for more information.
That said, I'm somewhat less inclined to believe it's a right-wing nutjob, because usually the victim would have been mentioned in some kind of news article about whatever the MAGAts were upset about now.
I think you are underestimating the brains on these fools.
You're right.
Imo what it does show is the underbelly of America is seething and about ready to explode.
I don’t think it’s just the underbelly.
I have to tell you that this is a lot more common than you might think and has happened for a long time.
It's... Hagerstown. It's completely unsurprising.
It's where one of the big prisons is. When people get out, they get stuck there for one reason or another. Halfway homes and POs are there, they don't have anywhere to go back to, your prison bodies live there now. A bunch of reasons.
It's not a particularly violent place, but it sort of is like a whole city compromised of Florida Man, but without the publicity.
We don't even know if the judge was killed in his own driveway or someone else's. Have to wait on more details.
Judge’s driveway
